Queen Silvia attend the opening of Kungsrallyt 2016

This morning, King Carl Gustaf and Queen Silvia visited the opening of annual Swedish King Rally 2016 (Kungsrallyt) in Öland island. The King Rally (Kungsrallyt) began in 1997 in connection with the 50th birthday of King Carl Gustaf of Sweden. In 1996, the first Volvo PV60 car which started to be produced in 1946 was given as a gift to King Gustaf. King Gustaf participated in the first Swedish King Rally held in Öland Island in August 1997 with that Volvo PV60 which was at the same age with him.
